Riders joining Roczen and Webb in the 250 division include two-time winner at the event Marvin Musquin, 2017 victor Gared ‘Stank Dawg’ Steinke, Aaron Plessinger, Justin Barcia and Josh Hansen.

In the 125cc/150cc category, former winner Carson Brown will be aiming to claim another victory, squaring off against Ryan Morais, Casey Cochran and AJ Catanzano to name a few.
